    Kubota T1870 runs okay then shuts down

T1870 Kubota
Great Lawn Tractor
Model Year: 2003

Purchased used. I knew it would be a good machine but it has surpassed my expectations. I love it. It gives a beautiful cut even after 1000 hours and stands up well to two teenage operators. Kubota T-series mowers are priced a bit higher than some, but I have to say it is well worth the money.

Pros: Cushion ride rear suspension, easy steering, comfortable to run.
Cons: Plastic hood cowling is susceptible to cracking if it hits anything.

T1870 Kubota
Kubota T1870
Model Year: 2007

Basically, Kubota apparently decided to cash in on their excellent reputation for extreme quality in their lawn tractors. They replaced the water-cooled Kawasaki engines with air-cooled Kolher engines. My dealer was out of business before I could return the mower. It backfired occasionally right off the bat and on occasions it backfired a lot. The fuel pump was replaced along with a new carburetor with no noticeable improvement. It was in the shop almost a whole summer and I bought a JD for a backup. It does ride much smoother than the JD though.

Pros: None.
Cons: Poor engine and dealer support.
